[RFC 5/6] kernel.h: implement fmtmatch() wrapper around fmtcheck()

[Rasmus Villemoes]

I couldn't come up with a better name, suggestions welcome.

Some users may prefer to EINVAL rather than using the the template as a
fallback for printf'ing. fmtmatch() is simply a shorthand for
fmtcheck(a, b, c) == a.
